Blackety, black, black, black. There's no comparison!

I prefer the black. It makes the blocks pop more. The white seems to be washing them out.

Black. Both look good but I like the black best. It makes the colors pop.

I will go with white if survey shows more white than black (I have a poll on my FB account as well !!!)

Gorgeous blocks! Black for me, too. Can't wait to see the finished quilt.

Black -- the white dulls the blocks because there is white in some of the fabrics.
